1 Kings 13:9-11

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

⁹ for so was it commanded me by the word of the Lord, saying, ‘You shall neither eat bread, nor drink water, nor return by the way that you came.’” ¹⁰ So he went another way, and did not return by the way that he came to Bethel.

¹¹ Now there dwelt an old prophet in Bethel. And his sons^[a] came and told him all that the man of God had done that day in Bethel; the words also which he had spoken to the king, they told to their father.
